A short, intensive program that teaches the practical foundations of running real projects — scope, schedule, budget, risk and stakeholders — so you can step into project work quickly.
Aspiring project coordinators, project administrators and people wanting to move into a PM-supporting role without committing to a full Diploma upfront.
Build a project plan, manage tasks and timelines, write basic status reports, run stand-ups, manage risks at a project-coordinator level and support a Project Manager confidently.
The Kickstarter is a fast-track career program, not a full Diploma. It gives you a recognised certificate of completion and a clear pathway into the BSB50820 Diploma of Project Management.
Most students complete the Kickstarter in 4–8 weeks of self-paced study, with trainer support throughout.
Yes. You'll be exposed to industry tools and templates — schedules, registers, RACI charts and status reports — so you can speak the language of PM from day one.
